Last thing you Binged: Matthew McConaughey’s speech from the Oscars, because I missed it.

Something cool you’ve worked on recently: DigiGirlz Day! I find all of the Microsoft employees who passionate and love to teach students about technology to help with the event. Then we build an agenda that’s about STEM but really fun as well.

What inspires you about tech? For me, it’s the excitement of always learning something new because technology is constantly changing. I also love that I know the most cutting edge technology when I’m talking with people because of my job!

What is a problem you would like to see technology solve? Oh my god … traffic problems. That would be great.
